Symbol as Watermark
 
I inserted a wingding into a few cells - To be specific,
it's a graphic of an open folder. I want to make it a
watermark - Is this possible?

Thank you, Karen

Karen

I forgot to say that, I changed the cell font to gray and
it's gray on screen. When I print it, it's black.

HELP!

Thank you for your input - Although the examples you
suggested are for images, clip art, word art, etc. - I
need to change a symbol for the Character Map into a
watermark. Any other suggestions?

InsertPictureWordArt

Clear the "your text here" from the box.(delete)

Enter a symbol using ALT key.

i.e. assume you want the symbol for an open folder from WingDings.

Select Wingdings from the Font box.

At the cursor hit ALT + 0049(from numpad) to enter the symbol in the WordArt.

To see which Dec numbers are for which symbol, open Charmap from Windows.

StartRun "charmap"(no quotes) and OK
